Ward Marston does it again,
By George Parous (jsgp@pgh.net) (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Johanna Gadski, Vol. 2 (The Victor Recordings, 1910-1917 & Mapleson Cylinder Recordings) (Audio CD)
The soprano's essays into classical singing were vast and varied, and all represented here; glorious sonic echoes of the "Golden Age of Opera" as presented by one of the finest singers of her time. From Wagner to Verdi to Mozart and back again, Johanna Gadski's voice has been preserved as never before under Ward Marston's remarkably skillful remastering hands. Rare second takes, sometimes third takes, lieder, art songs and oratorio excerpts all ring out with with brilliance. Also included are the fascinating "Mapleson cylinders," maddeningly brief excerpts of actual performances at the Met in 1903, but thrilling just the same. This 3 CD set is a must for all interested in the history of classical singing, generously illustrated with rare photographs and notes.
